“Larissa is Amazing! She always helps out in a pinch and and makes things work. Larissa is extremely thorough in collecting info about the dogs and really wants to give the dogs her best. She did so well with our puppy and our old man who can be a bit finicky! Thank you Larissa!!!”


About: I have worked with animal rescue for 12 years, fostering, short and long-term, and rescue transport. I have experience with all different breeds and multiple sizes. Enjoy working with dogs, playing, exercising. Available 7 days a week. Look forward to getting to know you and your four legged family members! Can be available at last minute if needed, even for emergencies. I enjoy being outdoors and exercising. We are a dog loving family, who would be happy to welcome your pets with open arms, and care for them as if they are our own. I do a very large fenced in yard for the zoomies. I also have horse experience able to tend to larger animals, a former horse owner myself. And assist neighbors taking care of their horses when they are away. I work M-F 830-5, but have flexibility in my schedule during the week when needed. Available for nights and weekends, short term or long term I have a fenced yard, a crate trained dog in home. I do have extra an extra crate if needed. Family of animal lovers, dog and cat friendly animals in my home as well.

“Rachael was GREAT! She communicated with us throughout and gave our kitties all the love! I had such great peace and was able to enjoy our vacation knowing they were in good care!”


“Alyssa was an awesome cat sitter! She came over before my trip to meet my kitties and learn their routine. She visited them each day and took care of them -- I appreciated the sweet notes and pictures she sent me. She didn't mind also watering my plant for me and cleaning their litter box. She was very responsive when we messaged on the app. I am so grateful I met her and will definitely book her again for my next trip!”



“Linda really put me at ease and was great with my dogs too. We had a great meet and greet and my dogs warmed right up to her. Even my standoffish dog was more at ease around Lina than she is with most people coming to the house. Linda really knows her way around dogs and having someone you can trust with your furbabies is a lifesaver!”


“Our boy Sonny enjoyed Michael’s visit. Michael didn’t just feed him and let him out for a break. He spent time giving him love and attention. We will definitely schedule Michael again soon.”


“Our dog Maybre is a tad bit on the nervous side, he has only met Sarah (with us) one time before we left on our vacation. Despite all of that sarah did great with Maybre! She was very prompt with her schedule, loving to Maybre, and communicative with what was going on (including photos). I am happy that Maybre now has a new friend/sitter with Sarah!”


“I found Tara earlier this year, as I wanted someone local to check on my kittens while I was away. She did a few days in October and then recently did 9 days while I was out in Asia on a trip. She showed up every day and did what was asked, as well as going the extra mile by bringing my mail and packages in.”


About: I have always had a special kind of love for animals. From the time I was 10 I’ve taken on the responsibility to care for my own dog “Moo Moo” as well as many family and friends’ animals, so I have pleat of experience with dogs of all sizes! I have bathed, walked, and cared for/played with many furry friends! I do have small children so as long as your dog(s) get along with children, it’ll be a perfect match! I am available to give your animal some love and playtime Monday-Saturday 8:00am-8:00pm. Overnight boarding is preferred. I have a fenced yard and 1 fur friend of my own to keep yours company! I am also flexible crate wise. I personally allow my dogs on the furniture, but that is up to you.

“Chelsea did a wonderful job! She was greeted with a puke mess on the carpet to clean up. So sorry about that! Sienna did well--as much as she does when I'm gone. I'm sure she enjoyed getting out for a walk.”


About: I raised two Boston Terrier sisters from pups to senior dogs. I'm familiar, comfortable, and prefer the sheduele that a pet dog(s) requires. As well, I've rescued several stray dogs that were later adopted into loving families or relocated to their home. I am passionate about the safety, care, and basic needs of each pet with intentions to exceed expectations above and beyond. I only work part time, majorly during the morning hours; therefore, I'll have plenty of time in the afternoon and evening to care for your pet! Also, I have complete open availability during the weekends. I would love to spend my free time getting to know and love your pet! I have a massive yard for pet play with plenty of grass, trees, and free range to roam. Although I have three cats, they are all indoor and outdoor which works perfectly depending on your pet's own personal needs regarding other animals too. Most importantly, your pet would be in a quiet and loving environment surrounded by nature.

About: I grew up caring for dogs of all ages - great with puppies, seniors, and shy pets. I’m patient, attentive, reliable, loving and treat every dog like family. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine—I’m available on weekdays anytime before 5 PM, and I truly enjoy spending that time giving pets the love, attention, and care they deserve. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or just some cozy company, I make sure they feel happy and safe while you’re away. Caring for animals brings me joy, and I treat every pet like they’re my own! I follow each pet’s routine closely - whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or cuddles. I keep things clean, calm, and always make sure your pet feels safe and loved.

“This was our first time using Rover and Jessica put us right at ease. She’s a compassionate animal lover and even with our not-so-friendly older cat, she knew how to interact (or not interact) to make her feel calm. Jessica did everything we asked and more,plus she kept us clued in to everything Winnie was up to while we were away. We will definitely have Jessica as a sitter again! Gave us great peace of mind.”


About: I have been around dogs all of my life and began watching them about a year ago. I have raised two dogs, so I am experienced in potty training and the puppy energy! I am currently enrolled at VCU and I am very flexible and willing to do whatever is needed for your dogs to have the most care! Making your doggo is comfortable with me is my number one priority! I will make follow any guidelines that are provided and make sure your dog is well taken care of.

About: I grew up with dogs of all sizes! I have a little dachshund named steel who is a couch potato with the occasional zoomies as well as a 6 year old son who loves anything furry and sweet. I work 8:30-3 but only 7 mins from home and can pop in on my lunch if needed. Otherwise home and ready to play with fur babies I do not have a fenced in yard but do have space where they could get their zoomies out. Welcome to be on furniture and even better if they snuggle my kiddo in bed.

About: I have experience with all animal types including dogs, cats, horses, livestock, birds, pocket pets and some reptiles. I am a licensed vet tech so I am also comfortable medicating animals that need it. I have 7 dogs, 6 cats, a leopard gecko and several chickens, all of which are friendly with other animals. I will only accept animals into my home to be boarded that are dog-friendly. I will treat your pets as if they are my own no matter if they are being boarded or just going for a walk. I do work full time but I am able to make drop in visits around my work schedule. Please feel free to ask any questions regarding your pets and their needs while you are working, vacationing, etc. I can care for pets early before work, mid-day and late after work. On weekends my schedule can be more flexible depending on what activities I have going on. Any dogs that come into my home will be treated as if they were my own. I have a fenced backyard for the dogs to play in. Boarding dogs will have their own room to hang out in.

About: I've always loved animals and have tons of experience with all kinds. Right now I have a dog, a cat, 3 lizards and several aquariums so my experience is varied. My dog is a purebred German Shepherd so I have good experience with larger breeds. I work full time during the week, so my availability will mainly be on weekends. I do sometimes have Fridays off so I may be able to accommodate certain Fridays. Due to having a cat and dog I will not be hosting animals in my home, however I would be happy to follow any instructions set out for me in caring for your animals.

So thankful to have her take care of my pets!”
